A 12-Episode Anime beginning in early 2011 as the second of four Marvel Comics series produced by anime studio Madhouse, Marvel Anime: Wolverine follows Logan's journey to Japan in search of his lost love, Mariko Yashida. As it turns out, Mariko's father, Shingen Yashida, is the head of the criminal organization known as Kuzuryu (Nine Dragons) and intends to marry her off to cement an alliance with Hideki Kurohagi, leader of the tiny island nation of Madripoor.After trying and failing to rescue Mariko from her father's clutches, Logan is joined by Yukio, the daughter of an assassin who was killed by Shingen, and is now seeking vengeance. Together, they follow Shingen and Mariko to Madripoor where the wedding is to take place.The series is based on the same Frank Miller/Chris Claremont storyline that inspired the later live-action film The Wolverine. | |

The first time Logan fights Vadhaka, he is badly beaten and only wins when Min unleashes hot steam into Vadhaka's eyes, blinding the giant. Logan thus figures out that the eyes are Vadhaka's most vulnerable spot, so in their next fight he immediately targets them. Too bad AIM also realized this weakness and gave Vadhaka a protective visor that even Wolverine's claws can't penetrate. | |

Thanks to his healing factor he always lasts long enough to squeak out a win.

Properly Paranoid: Even though she's chained securely, Hideki makes sure to check in on Yukio. This gives the opportunity to shoot her in the back before she can slaughter the mooks guarding her. In the finale after shooting Logan with a nerve-toxin dart, Hideki figures he'd better decapitate Logan while he can, in case his Healing Factor saves him. It does. | |

Bad Boss: Hideki. He shoots one of his own henchmen with a horrifyingly lethal nerve toxin for no other reason than to demonstrate its effects. Shingen. Anyone who would mercilessly kill his own top assassin just because she happened to fall in love with the son of his hated enemy would definitely mark him as a terrible boss to behold. | |

Flat Character | |
| Marvel Anime: Wolverine / int_3d5c5deb | comment |
Flat Character: There are quite a notable few that qualify, but Shingen definitely stands out when it comes to this. His entire appearance shows him scowling, rarely smiling, always spouting threats, berating or gloating to the few people he actually interacts with, or waving his sword around. Despite him advertised as a fearsome presence, he seems to leave most of the dirty work to Hideki. Most of his interactions with his own daughter, while it is clear that he could care less about her and seems to view her as his property to sell, involve him taunting her for still being in love with Logan or reminding her to commit to her “wifely duties.” He doesn’t have as much screen time as he was supposed to, especially when compared to Hideki, so as a result we don’t know much of his personality, other than him being a generic failure-intolerant and somehow invincible villain. | |

Attack Its Weak Point: The sole reason Omega Red goes down so fast in his last battle against Logan is because at this point Logan figured out a vital piece of equipment on Omega Red's suit is his weak spot, and immediately targets this. The first time Logan fights Vadhaka, he is badly beaten and only wins when Min unleashes hot steam into Vadhaka's eyes, blinding the giant. Logan thus figures out that the eyes are Vadhaka's most vulnerable spot, so in their next fight he immediately targets them. Too bad AIM also realized this weakness and gave Vadhaka a protective visor that even Wolverine's claws can't penetrate. | |

Big Bad Duumvirate | |
| Marvel Anime: Wolverine / int_978a82e6 | comment |
Big Bad Duumvirate: Hideki Kurohagi and Shingen Yashida. However, both differ in so many ways, particularly when it comes to characterization and personality. For instance, Hideki is a Smug Snake and a bloodthirsty sadist with a penchant for Domestic Abuse and threatening or outright killing his own men for petty reasons such as letting Logan into Madripoor and causing trouble for him. He also has more screen time and therefore more time to antagonize Logan and show himself to be a loathsome human being. Conversely, Shingen is more of a hateful, arrogant crime boss who is known to kill his own men just for failing their jobs only once, as notably shown in a flashback when he coldly killed his best assassin just for falling in love with the bodyguard son of the enemy. Interestingly, Hideki is shown to be nervous and afraid of Shingen, and often reports to him about his actions or asks him for help with dealing with Logan, making it possible that Shingen would be the bigger antagonist than Hideki. | |

Blood Knight: Oh yeah. You can just tell from the last two episodes alone that Shingen is enjoying beating up Logan, even declaring that he was actually looking forward to their final duel. And for a more subtler example, he actually provoked Koh and Yukio into getting mad and therefore lowering their guards long enough for him to deal a final blow. Clearly, Shingen is not as stable as he likes to present himself as. | |

Charles Atlas Superpower: Shingen Yashida, an elderly, unpowered Yakuza boss who is, by a considerable margin, Wolverine's most dangerous opponent in the entire series, and doesn't even have to go all Combat Pragmatist to accomplish this. Although he's not above a little bit of pragmatism here and there. | |

Urban Segregation: Madripoor is split into two sections. Lowtown is the poor, filthy slum area, and Hightown is the clean, modern area where the rich people live. The only thing in common between the two sides is that they're both completely populated by criminals. | |
